The correct domain is actually set in ESM (and changes are replicated to IIS), but the OWA web site still requires users to enter the domain name with their username.
The same thing happens both internally and externally when accessing the OWA site. Assume the following: Internal DNS domain name: domain.org External DNS domain name: domain.com NetBIOS domain name: domain If I just enter username & password, the login fails, and the logon box returns with domain.com\username in the username field. That won't work, though, as the user accounts exist in the internal domain. If you enter either domain.org\username or domain\username, and a password, you log in just fine. The fact that the failed logon returns with the external domain name appended to the username makes me think this is a DNS issue, but I'm pretty new to Exchange so that's just my shot in the dark. Any other suggestions on where to look?

You can change it by browsing to Organization/Administrative Group/Servers/Server/Protocols/HTTP/Exchange Virtual Server/Exchange, right click Exchange, Properties, Access tab, Authentication and set whatever options you like. Whatever you set here will show up in IIS. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joe Sent: Monday, June 27, 2005 5:43 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Outlook Web Access & Split DNS This isn't my specialty but I believe you can set the default auth domain in the IIS settings where you configure authentication types. joe -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lamberty, Dave Sent: Monday, June 27, 2005 6:00 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: Outlook Web Access & Split DNS When users log in to our Outlook Web Access site, they must enter their username in the format domainname\username, as the domain name isn't being passed. I'd like to be able to pass the domain name so users don't have to remember to enter it when they log on (and reduce help desk call volume by about 50%...). We're not using ISA Server, and have just a single Exchange 2003 server for our mail. AD is 2003 mixed mode, soon to be switched to native mode. We have a split DNS structure, where the OWA page resides in a different DNS domain than our AD user accounts, and I'm wondering if that might be part of the problem. Does anyone know how (or if it's possible) to pass OWA a different domain name?
